Zechariah 8
1 The word of Jehovah of hosts came to me.
Maganar Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ta sāke zuwa gare ni.
2 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath."
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ina kishin Sihiyona ƙwarai; ina kuma cike da kishi dominta.”
3 Thus says Jehovah: "I have returned to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be called 'The City of Truth;' and the mountain of Jehovah of hosts, 'The Holy Mountain.'"
Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan koma Sihiyona in zauna a Urushalima. Sa’an nan za a kira Urushalima Birnin Gaskiya, a kuma kira dutsen Ubangiji Maɗaukaki Dutse Mai Tsarki.”
4 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "Old men and old women will again dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Tsofaffi maza da mata za su sāke zauna a titunan Urushalima, kowanne da sanda a hannu saboda tsufa.
5 The streets of the city will be full of boys and girls playing in its streets."
Titunan birnin za su cika da samari da’yan mata suna wasa.”
6 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes?" says Jehovah of hosts.
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Mai yiwuwa ya zama da mamaki ga raguwar wannan mutanen da suke nan a lokacin, amma zai zama abin mamaki gare ni ne?” In ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
7 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "Look, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Zan ceci mutanena daga ƙasashen gabas da yamma.
8 and I will bring them, and they will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and they will be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness."
Zan komo da su su zauna a Urushalima; za su zama mutanena, ni kuwa zan zama amintaccen Allahnsu mai adalci.”
9 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "Let your hands be strong, you who hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets who were in the day that the foundation of the house of Jehovah of hosts was laid, even the temple, that it might be built.
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ku da yanzu kuke jin maganan nan da annabawa suka faɗi, waɗanda suke a nan lokacin da aka kafa harsashin haikalin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, bari hannuwanku su zama da ƙarfi don a gama gina haikalin.
10 For before those days there was no wages for man, nor any wages for an animal; neither was there any peace to him who went out or came in, because of the adversary. For I set all men everyone against his neighbor.
Kafin wannan lokaci babu albashi domin mutum ko dabba. Ba wanda yake iya sakewa yă yi hidimominsa saboda maƙiya, domin na sa kowa yă zama maƙiyi maƙwabcinsa.
11 But now I will not be to the remnant of this people as in the former days," says Jehovah of hosts.
Amma yanzu ba zan yi da waɗanda raguwar mutane yadda na yi da na dā ba,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
12 "For the seed of peace and the vine will yield its fruit, and the ground will give its increase, and the heavens will give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
“Iri zai yi girma da kyau, kuringa za tă ba da’ya’yanta, ƙasa za tă ba da hatsi, sama kuma za tă ba da raɓa. Zan ba da duk waɗannan abubuwa su zama gādo ga raguwar mutanen nan.
13 It shall come to pass that, as you were a curse among the nations, house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing. Do not be afraid. Let your hands be strong."
Kamar yadda kuka zama abin la’ana a ƙasashe, ya Yahuda da Isra’ila, haka zan cece ku, za ku kuma zama albarka. Kada ku ji tsoro, sai dai ku bar hannuwanku su zama da ƙarfi.”
14 For thus says Jehovah of hosts: "As I thought to do evil to you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath," says Jehovah of hosts, "and I did not repent;
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Kamar dai yadda na yi niyyar kawo muku bala’i, in kuma ƙi jin tausayi sa’ad da kakanninku suka ba ni haushi,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki,
15 so again have I thought in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Do not be afraid.
kada ku ji tsoro “saboda a yanzu na yi niyya in sāke yi wa Urushalima da Yahuda abu mai kyau.
16 These are the things that you shall do: speak every man the truth with his neighbor. Execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates,
Abubuwan da za ku yi ke nan. Ku gaya wa juna gaskiya, ku kuma dinga yin shari’ar gaskiya a ɗakunanku na shari’arku;
17 and let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbor, and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate," says Jehovah.
kada ku ƙulla wa maƙwabtanku mugunta, kuma kada ku so yin rantsuwa ta ƙarya. Ina ƙyamar waɗannan duka,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
18 The word of Jehovah of hosts came to me.
Maganar Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ta sāke zuwa wurina.
19 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "The fasts of the fourth fifth, seventh, and tenth months shall be for the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts. Therefore love truth and peace."
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Azumin wata na huɗu, da na watan biyar, da na watan bakwai da na watan goma za su zama lokutan farin ciki da murna da kuma bukukkuwa na murna ga Yahuda. Saboda haka sai ku ƙaunaci gaskiya da salama.”
20 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "Many peoples and the inhabitants of many cities will yet come;
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Mutane da yawa da kuma mazaunan birane da yawa har yanzu za su zo,
21 and the inhabitants of one shall go to another, saying, 'Let us go speedily to entreat the favor of Jehovah, and to seek Jehovah of hosts. I will go also.'
mazaunan wani birni za su je wurin mazaunan wani birni su ce, ‘Bari mu je nan da nan mu roƙi Ubangiji mu kuma nemi Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. Ni kaina zan je.’
22 Yes, many peoples and strong nations will come to seek Jehovah of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of Jehovah."
Mutane da yawa kuma da al’ummai masu ƙarfi za su zo Urushalima su nemi Ubangiji Maɗaukaki su kuma roƙe shi.”
23 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: "In those days, ten men will take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, they will take hold of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, 'We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'"
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “A kwanakin nan, mutane goma daga kabilu da al’ummai za su riƙe rigar mutumin Yahuda guda su ce, ‘Bari mu tafi tare da kai, domin mun ji cewa Allah yana tare da ku.’”
